Hello,
What kind of characters can be sent between the two printing
strings: escape,control,8 bit, characters? What I thinking of
doing is checking to see if a file is binary in my printing script
and uuencoding if it is, then cat-ing it between the printing strings.
I would then add uudecode to the magicfilter, so I could print
graphics, pdf etc. Any ideas?
Thanks
